Miller testifies on shield law

New York Times reporter Judith Miller appeared today before the Senate Judiciary Committee to testify on a proposed federal shield law. "Even flawed reporters should not be jailed for protecting even flawed sources," she testified, according to CNN. Meanwhile, CNN analyst Jeff Greenfield cites a long-ago Supreme Court justice in commenting on the Miller case, "The more you explain it, the less I understand it."
